LeBron James showed off his photographic memory once again on Wednesday night, recalling in detail each of his six turnovers in Game 5 against the Boston Celtics.

The Cavaliers came up short in the game, falling to the Celtics, 96-83, to give Boston a 3-2 series lead and put the Cavs on the brink of elimination. But as James made clear after the game, he was quite aware of the missteps he made throughout the game.

Responding to a question from one reporter, James quickly began to break down each time he turned the ball over, and what happened on each play.

James insanely precise basketball recall has become something of a regular story since he began revealing it to reporters after games. Last year, he sent jaws dropping as he recited a random play from memory as if he had just watched the replay.

This season, he brought his recall to a new level, breaking down every movement of the ball during the 7-0 run the Celtics had to open the fourth quarter of Game 1. Somehow, James can track not only himself, but also the ball and all nine other players on the court simultaneously, and has instant access to all of the files that get stored in his hard drive.

The Cavaliers face elimination in Game 6 as the series head back to Cleveland — should James fall short of making it to his eighth straight NBA Finals, there's no doubt he'll be able to explain what went wrong.
